Nominate a mental health program worthy of the spotlight
Sarasota-based mental-health consortium Here4Youth wants to shine a spotlight on outstanding local programs helping under-25 people in the community to thrive.
Here4Youth is a collaboration initiated and supported by the Charles & Margery Barancik Foundation and Gulf Coast Community Foundation that is building an overarching network of care in Sarasota County. Its many partners include First Step of Sarasota; the Florida Department of Health; the National Alliance on Mental Illness, NAMI Sarasota; Sarasota County Health and Human Services; Sarasota County Schools; and the Central Florida Behavioral Health Network.

Here4Youth is looking for nominees to its Shine a Spotlight program that are:
- A service or program nominated by someone other than themselves, preferably by someone who has used the service.
- Community programs and volunteer efforts that are replicable.
- A program that helps Sarasota youth with behavioral/mental health issues or their families or that focus on prevention.
- A group that is willing to be recognized by Here4Youth.
Agencies as a whole are not eligible.
